eventPhonics and Reading
I had learned about the Orton-Gillingham (OG) approach to teaching literacy. OG is a multi-sensory approach to teaching language skills. OG remains the gold standard for teaching literacy at schools which specialize in dyslexia and at some of America’s most selective private schools.
eventSimplifying Writing
I can once again put to good use the writing experience from college. And because OG presents a sensible, accessible approach to writing—building on keywords to make phrases, sentences, and paragraphs—I have helped students organize and create excellent written assignments.
eventMath and SAT Prep
You might think that I work only in phonics, reading and literacy. But I’ve always loved math, and because of my ability to coach in math and reading, I have enabled many students to improve their scores on the SAT and ACT.
eventWriting
I teach writing to students of all ages, and have developed a curriculum that begins with foundational skills and builds on key words, phrases, sentences, paragraphs, and full essays.
